Sept. 12th:Lilith's Birthday!

This week/weekend has been SO busy. From new school year to her birthday to photo shoots and keeping up (barely) with art. Aaa!

It was my little Lilith's 15th birthday this past weekend. We were going to go to a rock show but Chris misread the date and it's actually in October. We'll still go but it'll be a while yet. We took her to a local BBQ place and order the big sampler. It was a huge amount even for 7 people. The chicken and ribs were awesome, I was less impressed with the brisket but I wasn't about to go on a Ramsey Rant. My long island iced tea was surprisingly strong, but yummy. O>O We did a bonfire and had a bunch of people over for cake and random fun. No official party just a "common over" sort of thing. She got a couple hundred dollars worth of steam cards. O.O I was like...I'll just yoink one of these >:D Nah. It's funny cuz she's smart and was like "I'm ready for the winter sale" XD

We didn't really take many pictures and the ones we did take didn't turn out. Either blury or she was making her "derp" face. She loves doing that just as the second flash comes on because the person taking it can't see the change from nice smile to evil worm princess. XD

Sept. 13th: Lanterns in the dark

Sunday was a busy day. I did 2 photo shoots. I'm going to be using the photos for my October art updates. :D The shoots themselves were like polar opposites. The Padme shoot was melting hot with tons of mosquitoes in a very out in nature setting. While the Riddler shoot was at night in freezing wind in a rumble strewn area under a bridge with a bunch of graffiti under it.

We took about 100 pictures at each site. It was a fun thing to do because the photographer was my bf. :D It made it easy for me to let go and get into character. Plus I was able to boss him around more than I would a photographer "with vision". XD Explaining angles to him however was a bit...annoying. He kept on going for really wide shots, when the idea of the photos were to spotlight the costume. Much cropping is in my future. Overall a fun date thing to do. . .there may have been forest smooching after Padme shoot. HEhehe.

The riddler shoot was fun and kinda scary because of how dark it was outside and hearing the cars over head. We went for coffee after that to warm up and I was like...oh yeah...I'm in costume. ROFL. oh well.
